those are good shocks, heard good things about them. I thought 4wd was trying to tell you they were comparable to fox racing shocks which they dont even sell

the fox ss is crazy expensive i think for what it does. bilstein makes a ss i didnt even know that

i got the teraflex ss because my stock one was banged up and leaking... and i like it, its better than stock, actually got it from bustabizz lol during the crazy teraflex sale and im using it with the woods ss flip bracket.

honestly I dont know.. it came with the AEV kit.. usually they are OME, but mine came with a silver stabilizer......... maybe its bilstein, maybe its crap.. the AEV instructions said, if the stabilizer is yellow throw out the hardware and use your old hardware, if its silver use the hardware that came with it.

I put a picture of the yellow one in my previous post.

There is a certain company that makes and sells a better bracket to hook the S/S to the tie rod. If you know that bracket do you think it would work in addition to the woods flip bracket on the other side?

I like the teraflex SS. i thought it wouldnt do anything but there actually is a noticeably different feeling when driving. Its hard to describe i dont wanna say it feels lighter but its easier to turn the wheel if that makes any sense lol. Its also easier to stay in a lane but front lca's are still needed

heres a pic of the woods bracket and the tf ss

with the woods kit it literally flips the ss so my terflex sticker was facing down so i just took it off. i think it would work with that other tie rod bracket
